machine purposes
|
deliver O2 at constant rate
vaporize / deliver anesthetic provide for assisted ventilation |
|
compressed gas source
|
oxygen (220psi)
nitrous oxide (760psi) |
|
pressure regulator
|
attached to gas source
reduces pressure to 50-60psi |
|
pressure gauge
|
tells how much gas is left in the tank
change O2 when less than 200L change NO2 when 75% gone |
|
flowmeter
|
controls flow of gas going to the patient
reduces pressure to 15psi max - 10L/min min - 500ml/min |
|
flowmeter rebreathing rate
|
15ml/kg/min
|
|
flowmeter nonrebreathing rate
|
200ml/kg/min
|
|
oxygen flush valve
|
near flowmeter, bypasses the vaporizer to deliver fresh oxygen to patient
rate 50-60L/min NEVER PUSH WHEN ANIMAL IS HOOKED UP AND POP OFF VALVE IS CLOSED |
|
vaporizer
|
delivers a controlled amount of anesthetic to patient
takes a liquid, vaporizes it, and delivers to patient |
|
precision vaporizer
|
controls vapor concentration regardless of environmental conditions
|
|
nonprecision vaporizers
|
vapor concentration is effected by environmental conditions, decide settings based on animal's response
|
|
unidirectional dome valves
"flutter valves" |
one for inhalation, one for exhalation
keep flow circular and air from going in the wrong direction |
|
breathing hoses
|
take oxygen and anesthetic to and away from the patient
|
|
reservoir bags
|
stores gas, can be used to perform manual ventilation, and allows for visualizing respiration
|
|
reservoir bag size
|
60ml/kg
OR 5 x TV = bag size in ml (TV = 10ml/kg body weight) |
|
pop-off / pressure release valve
|
allows gas to leave / enter the scavenger circuit
closed when ventilating the patient manually |
|
pressure manometer
|
measures the amount of pressure within the system
dogs - should not exceed 20 cmH20 cats - should not exceed 15 cmH20 |
|
scavenger system
|
filters gas so that no anesthetics leak into the environment
|
|
carbon dioxide absorber
|
absorbs CO2 so fresh oxygen can enter the system
filled with barium hydroxide lime need to be changed when the crystals change from white to blue |
|
out of circle breathing system
|
old oxygen does not pick up new anesthetic
|
|
in circle breathing system
|
non precision vaporizer; new anesthetic continually added to old oxygen, levels can increase over time
|
